About the cost
In Arizona, the bail premium is set by the state Department of Insurance — typically 10% of the total bail amount. So a $10,000 bail means a $1,000 premium. That premium is the fee for posting the bond and is non-refundable, even if the charges are later dropped. If 10% is hard to pay all at once, we offer flexible payment plans.
Often, no — especially for smaller bonds with a qualified co-signer. For larger bonds we may ask for collateral (such as property or a vehicle) to secure the bond. We explain exactly what’s needed and why before you sign anything, and any collateral is returned in full once the bond is exonerated (the case is resolved and all court dates are met).
Yes. Many families can’t pay the full premium at once, and we get it. We build flexible plans around your real budget — a reasonable down payment, then manageable installments, with 0% financing on approved plans and no prepayment penalty. We post the bond now and you pay over time.
